As many organizations are in the process of moving to the cloud, or even considering a move, and a large portion of those organizations use SharePoint, it can be difficult to determine if and when a SharePoint on-premises and a SharePoint Online hybrid solution will provide value. This isn’t surprising, given the fact that questions are often raised around maintaining local control over security, functionality and manageability, or sacrificing that local control to reap the benefits that cloud computing has to offer.
What exactly is SharePoint hybrid? TechNet provides a good review for business decision makers. With SharePoint 2013 hybrid, you’re able to securely integrate productivity services in SharePoint Online with SharePoint 2013 on-premises, unifying both access to data and overall functionality.
As mentioned in the article, while cloud services are a popular alternative to on-prem SharePoint, many companies are finding that they would like to gradually move their workloads to the cloud, allowing them to explore the cloud and its functionality on a smaller scale. Or, they’d like to extend their current on-premises SharePoint investment to the cloud, integrating services such as SharePoint Search and Business Connectivity Services.
If you are trying to make this determination, join us next week, Wednesday, June 11, 2014 at 1 p.m. CT for a webinar, SharePoint 2013 Hybrid Scenarios That Make Sense: Optimize Your SharePoint & Office 365 Investment. During the session, Jason Bell, Senior Solutions Architect, and Matt Barman, Director, both of whom work within Perficient’s Microsoft Modern Applications group, will explore several optimal hybrid scenarios, and the benefits that can be realized by designing and implementing a solution that makes the most of SharePoint on-premises and Office 365.
